Trump administration alters national parks' free-entry days, cutting MLK Day

[IroNat]

Bad move.  Really bad move by Trump.
Tops it off by adding his birthday (Flag Day) to the fee free list.

I don't know if it's a "bad" move. Just seems unnecessary.

He's alienating the blacks that crossed over to vote for him.
For what?
What is the benefit?
Dumb.

It's both.

Just dumb, self inflicted wounds.

Stupid move on his part. Dude is a real douche this go around. No reason to add his birthday, I mean, flag day and take these two out.

Great question.

Unfortunately, Trump doing this does not surprise me in the least. But I am surprised that some of you folks noticed and commented about it. IroNat asked, "What's the benefit?" It benefits Trump because this is a classic act of self-aggrandizement which is core egomaniac behavior. These people often show extreme narcissism, grandiosity, and crave admiration. Trump constantly does this.

No, it doesn't benefit him in the least.
It only hurts him and his administration politically.

Thanks for posting this response. As a result, I fixed the post for clarity about how it benefits Trump (in his own mind, but no one else's).

How much does Trump himself influence these types of decisions?

the Interior Department — led by Interior Secretary Doug Burgum

Good point.
He may not have anything to do with it.
If they are smart they will reverse this, particularly regarding MLK day.

Yes, any day where kids are out of school they should be free.

That should be the guidelines for sure.
